snacks in Lima

Inka corn are giant corn nuts made from Peruvian corn called cancha. Cancha is 2 to 3 times larger than regular corn. Check out me eating cancha in Pisac (HERE)

Inka chips made with a mixed selection of yucca, sweet potato and plantains. Yum! These were really delicious.

A new favorite fruit I discovered in the Amazon. I loved it so much I went to the supermarket in Lima to pick up a couple to eat in the hotel room. Granadilla is similar to the passionfruit. Its delicious and fun to open too! After cracking the fruit open, you slurp up the inside, seeds and all! The taste is sweet, but mild.
